Through extensive testing, VELUX Fire Screens were developed to meet California's strictest fire codes for new skylight installations. To protect homes in areas prone to wildfires, these screens feature a finer, stronger mesh to prevent embers from falling through an open skylight. They also function like standard insect screens, preventing pests from entering your home.
VELUX Fire Screens meet or exceed requirements set by the California Fire Marshall, Wildlife Interface Zone, California Building Standards Commission, and Code 708A2.2 for certain California counties.
They are compatible with VELUX residential deck and curb mount venting skylights.
